So, if you have already counted an hour as "over 8", you cannot again count it towards "over 40" and vice versa. Generally the "over 40" calculation yields more overtime hours, but it can get complicated when "double time" and seven day workweeks are involved. Vince,

If I work 4 days of 11 hours in row, how much overtime am I supposed to get? if they go by over 8, i should get 12 hours over time (4 * 3). I they go by over 40, i should get 4 hours (4 * 11 - 40). If i get both should i get 3+3+3+4 for a total of 16? THanks -VInce I have a question about the over 40 and over 8 overtime calculation.
